Today was weird. Usually I wake up, check the time, and rest in my bed for a couple of minutes until my brain can register the fact that I am no longer sleeping. This morning I felt compelled to spring out of bed and then directly proceeded to the kitchen make Belgium waffles in the toaster oven while I impatiently waited for the butter to soften. They were mediocre and not worth the wait. The approximate time was 7:55, but I can never tell because the clocks in my house are all different. My internal clock constantly wakes me up before 9:00 a.m. Unless I gravely need sleep, then I can make it till like 11. I guess it's because I'm a worker and continually wake up early errr day. Haha, that joke of being a worker .. is old, but somewhat funny still. After my despicable waffles I watched three episodes of America's Next Top Model reruns and felt completely useless and disinterested. I met up at the Bagel Inn with Katie for lunch which was fine. She got a brand new 2010 car from her grandparents that was really awesome. She is on their website. I say "their" because I can't remember the type of car. She is one of the first people to own it. I'm happy for her because I really think she deserves. Lunch was nice. It's weird when you know everything about someone but you still have nothing to talk about. Not that it was bad, but it's harder to make conversation flow when nothing interesting has happened that they don't already know about or that would be worth updating them about. Especially when you're not as close as you once were. I tried to make conversation without seeming annoying and disingenuous. But when silence feels a bit uncomfortable, I tend to resort to that. I shouldn't.

I bought new sandals today and a purse and earings but they were all on sale because I am stingy and hate buying new things. I love getting new things, but using my own money is agonizing. Somehow I have managed to do a pretty good job at spending it, though. I start my other job this Wednesday and am so excited. I nanny my three cousins who are easily the most beautiful specimens that god created. I will try to get a good picture of them. I love when I take them places and people mistake me for their mother. The idea that someone thinks I took part in creating such beautiful children makes me overjoyed. Of course I play along, pathetically. I would have had to be 10 when I "had" Bella, the oldest, who is 8. I love everything about nannying them though. The amount of love and emotion I witness from them everyday is so gratifying. I even like disciplining them and teaching them what's right and wrong. I feel privileged that I get to help them grow up. These feelings will change at the end of the summer when I am exhausted and they start not to like me. I know it's only because I become a disciniplary figure to them, but it's very frustrating because I'll miss their cooperativeness.

I went to Caffe Dolce with Kathryn, Michela, Jen, and Bry and we had "Ho's Night" since all the boys were having "Bro's night." It's really true that girls are bitchy. We all argued in the car because we were lost, which resulting in me telling everyone to "Shut the fuck up," because "I know how to drive." Haha, looking back at it makes me laugh because I realize how ridiculous it was. But, at least I realize when I am being a bitch. I don't pretend that I'm always right, even though sometimes I really do think that I am. We got back to my house and watched Pineapple Express. My favorite part out of the whole movie was when Red and Seth Rogen (sp) were practicing with the guns. I enjoyed it. There was a lot of violence though. It feels more summery everyday. That will change once work starts. I have to work from 6:00 a.m to 2:00 p.m on my birthday. Which is Thursday. Wowzer.

The song I would like to share with you today is Parentheses by The Blow. It is a real cute one.
